Chapter 836: Rat
"The Second Emperor is suspicious of my family?"
Hearing Li Si say this, Li Yu was shocked.
But Li Si looked out of the carriage and didn't seem to want to continue talking about it, so Li Yu had to turn around and say:
"Father, Gongzi Gao has always been cautious since the death of the first emperor, and he didn't dare to take half a step out of the house, only hiding in the yard to pick fat and grow vegetables, why did the second emperor want to put him to death?"
"The royal family is different from ordinary people."
Li Si stroked his beard and said: "Gongzi Gao is the second son of the emperor, the eldest son of the princes in the court, and the first emperor once wanted to make him the heir after he ran out of Fusu...... This is sin, enough to die! β
"Today, the young son of the first emperor, if it weren't for Fusu to run, Gongzi Gao refused to be the emperor, and he should not have been established. Therefore, although the second emperor was upright and succeeded to the throne, he had been nervous, and in order to calm his heart, even the second son of Fusu had to be hanged and martyred in Lishan, how could he let go of the famous Gongzi Gao? β
Li Yuran: "So Gongzi Gao is the root cause of Feng's case?" β
Li Si said: "Yes, I wanted to do something to him this morning, but I have no excuse." coincided with the destruction of Jiangzhou City, and Heifu used a plan of discord. Shu County has cast a black man, the soldiers in Shu are plugged in Jiameng Pass, the sword mountain is precipitous, and even the apes can't pass. Heifu sent a deviant division into Hanzhong, took the west city, and blocked the rice cang road. The Tao has been extinct, and the true situation of Bashu cannot be transmitted to Guanzhong at all, so whether Feng Zheng is dead or surrendered has become a mystery, and Feng Quji is speechless, and then it will involve the son of Gao ......"
"So, Zhao Gao, who is good at speculating on his intentions, tried his best to expand the case, and used Feng Zheng to involve Feng Quji, and then climbed Gongzi Gao, so as to remove the thorn in his heart for Jinshang, so that Jinshang could trust him more and achieve the goal of leaning inside and outside the power!"
In just a few words, the case was cleared and clear, and he was worthy of Li Tingwei, who once judged the case like a god.
Li Yu frowned: "But Feng Quji has always been highly respected, if he is innocently killed, I am afraid that the Qin officials inside and outside the gate will be chilled, Your Majesty wants to get rid of Gongzi Gao, who has no actual threat, but wants to catch up with the Feng family who is loyal to Great Qin, is it really worth it?" β
He couldn't figure it out, now that the enemy is current, once Heifu enters the customs, no matter who is in a high position at that time, he will be liquidated, in this case, shouldn't he be unanimous with the outside world?
Li Si sneered: "Today, I have lost my ancestors, I don't know anything, and I don't know how to govern the people." β
In short, he was a child who had not grown up, and the first emperor was also sick and confused, or he had no choice, so he took this son as his heir.
"And Zhao Gao, a wolf with ambitions, was very good at figuring out his intentions when he was the commander of the CRRC government in the past, and the emperor was suspicious, but he also trusted him very much, and did not hesitate to stop Meng Yi from breaking the law and saving Zhao Gao's life. Gao and diligent study of law and order, finally for the current teacher, business for many years, and finally become a trend, this qualification, no one can compare. With the pampering and protection of today, this is what he has today......"
Or without the guilt of the sand dune scheme, he is much calmer, after more than half a year, what kind of person Zhao Gao is, Li Si has seen it clearly!
However, Li Si did not have a high evaluation of this person.
"Wu'er, have you seen some of the women in the mansion? Wives and concubines fight, guess the heart of the husband, instigate children to oppress their brothers, do good deeds, slander, intrigue, divide the family property, and make trouble for the key to the house. β
"But if they are allowed to use this cleverness in governing the country and using soldiers, their eyes will be black."
"Zhao Gao is quite like this kind of woman, the wisdom of her life is used to figure out her intentions, fight for power and profit, and be a political general, but she is just a mediocre person."
"He probably thinks that to deal with Heifu, having Wang Ben is enough, Feng Qujian is not important, after killing him, and then sending a cronie to the front line, he can also do a good job of transporting grain and supervising the rear army, and by the way, he can better monitor the Marquis of Tongwu?"
"Do you really think that in this way, you can easily resist the rebel bandits? Hey, this guy pretends to be smart, and today he pretends to be loyal, secretly separating me from Jinshang, when Li Si is really old and confused, can't see it? β
Seeing that Li Si finally said that he had entered the palace today, Li Yu asked with concern: "Zhao Gao is a hindrance, my father said that His Majesty has suspected the Li family, will he do something to my family?" β
Li Yu was a little scared, his family was quite favored by the emperor, not only the sons in the family married more princesses of Qin, but the daughters married more sons, such as the Gongzi general Lu brothers, who were the sons-in-law of the Li family.
He was deeply afraid that with Hu Hai's madness, after killing Gongzi Gao, he would have to attack other sons, and the Li family would also follow in the footsteps of the Feng family.
Li Si shook his head: "Zhao Gao is not stupid to that extent, he is not on good terms with Heifu, if Heifu enters the customs, he will be the first person to be killed!" Therefore, Zhao Gao can follow his wishes, and he will go down to the Feng family and Gongzi, but he will never dare to touch me and Wang Ben. β
Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief at this time, but Li Si asked him a fatal question!
"My son, do you know what Feng Quji's crime is?"
Li Yu swallowed his saliva: "Feng Quji...... Isn't it innocent? β
"Who said that he was not guilty, the eight articles I listed in front of him seem to be merits, but in fact, they are all crimes!"
Li Si shook his head, as if he regretted it, and as if he was lucky: "His sin is that he is too faithful!" β
"The former killed Guan Fenglong, killed Prince Bigan, and Wu Wangfu killed Wu Zixu. Aren't these three ministers loyal! However, they are not exempt from death, and those who are loyal to them are not those who are dead. β
"Today, Feng Quji's wisdom is not as good as that of his third son, and His Majesty's ruthlessness and cruelty are probably no less than Ji, Xu, and Fucha. Zhao Gao's viciousness and treachery are far better than Chonghou Hu and Bo Yao. The mediocre lord is a traitor, and the loyal minister dies with loyalty, it is advisable to ......"
"So, the Feng family, died of loyalty!"
bluntly said that the second emperor was a mediocre lord, and compared him with Ji Xuan, which was a crime of slander against the clan, Li Yu was shocked, lifted the curtain to look outside, and said in a low voice of fear: "Father, this ......"
"Don't be afraid." Li Si smiled: "Yu'er, you are smarter than your eldest brother, as you said, if Feng Qujian and Gongzi Gao die, the princes will be afraid and change, and the Qin officials and soldiers are also cold." β
"When the world sees that he is going against his brother and nephew, he does not care about it. invade and kill loyal ministers, and don't think about it. Dawei mausoleum, burial of 10,000 people, has betrayed the heavens and peace. He also broke his promise to the people and endowed the world. The four have already done it, and now the opposite ones have half of the world, and if they continue to do this perversely, I am afraid that they will not even be able to hold the ...... in the Guan"
Prime Minister Li Cheng sighed: "I'm afraid that in a year and a half, I will see Kou to Xianyang, and the deer will swim in Chaoye!" β
Li Yu was shocked: "Is the situation really so serious? So what should my family do? β
"Plan ahead, prepare early, I'll tell you a story."
Li Si was not in a hurry, and took out the close-fitting jade.
His jade is different from ordinary jade, it is not Jue, it is not Huang, it is not Pei, it is not a dragon, phoenix, turtle and other Rui things, but it is a ......
Big rats?
The mouse carved from black jade seemed to be real, holding it in the palm of Li Si's hand, and the wrinkles around the old prime minister's eyes narrowed.
He remembered the past.
"I used to be a small official in the Chu State, and I saw rats in the toilet and rats in the barn."
"Rats in the toilet eat unclean things, neighbors and dogs, and the number is frightened. The rats in the barn eat the accumulated millet, live under the big house, and do not see the worries of people and dogs. Then I realized that the sages of people are like rats, and they are in their own ears. So he resolutely resigned, entered Lanling, and learned from Xun Qing to learn from the emperor in order to find the main assistant. β
When he came to Xianyang, he was a guest of Lu Buwei, but he did not dare to forget the humility of the past. I entered the palace as a lang, saw the rat in the palace, and often paid attention. One day, I suddenly saw dozens of rats running out of an old palace room, and it was rumored to be a miracle for a while......"
"As a result, only a few hours later, the ground in Hanzhong moved, and Xianyang also felt the earthquake, the old palace built by the Shang Jun was eaten by termites, and it collapsed violently, crushing several people, but the rat, one did not die!"
He stared at his son: "As an official, it seems to be rich and prominent, but in fact it is like a rat in the palace, when the high-rise building you are in will collapse, you have to know in your heart." β
"LΓΌ Buwei is a very popular minister, called the middle father, and he has 100,000 households in Luoyang, but I have a premonition that things will decline, and he will fall sooner or later, so he tried his best to show loyalty to the first emperor and successfully got rid of the identity of the Lu family."
The majestic Xianyang Palace had been left behind, Li Si looked back at it, and clenched the jade rat in his hand: "To this day, I can feel that this building is crumbling again!" β
"Wang Ben, I, Feng Quji, Feng Wuxuan, the four pillars left by the First Emperor for Daqin have fallen to the second, not ...... Wang Ben is riddled with injuries and diseases, I am afraid that time is running out, if only I am left, it will be difficult to support alone, this vast building, I am afraid it will really collapse! β
Hu Hai couldn't help it, and the toppled country broke the waists of the three loyal ministers, and he, Li Tonggu, who was almost eighty years old, continued to give up his old life to carry it?
Forget it!
Li Si looked at his son: "You said, when the building collapsed, the rat still knew how to avoid, can people even be inferior to the rat?" β
He has no retainers in the position of a minister, he can be said to be extremely rich, but the extreme of things is declining, and Li Si does not want to end up in a bleak end in his old age.
At least before he dies, he can make amends and stand in line for the last time, so that his descendants will not be wiped out!
Li Yu approached: "Father means ......"
Li Si stroked his beard: "Your Majesty acted perversely, slaughtered his brothers and nephews, killed loyal ministers, Zhao Gao added fuel to the fire, I didn't admonish him, and now I don't listen to it, what can I do?" β
Li Yu had some knowledge in his stomach, and said with some fear and excitement: "Xun Qing once said that the king has planned things, and he will endanger the country and the fear of the society. If you can speak to you, you can use it, and if you don't use it, you will die, which is called a dispute...... It is said: 'Follow the Tao and not follow the king', this is also said. β
"Feng went to die of illness, for the sake of the minister, father...... Or it can be a minister! β
Li Si smiled with satisfaction: "Now, do you know why I didn't save Feng Quai?" β
Li Yu hung his head: "My son is stupid and can't comprehend." β
"I'll tell you."
Li Si whispered to his son: "There is no comparison, what Wei Ziqi did was to turn his back on the ancestors of Yin Shang and be spurned by the world. β
"But as soon as Bigan died, Weizi Qi descended to Zhou, he was a benevolent elder, a handsome man who knew the times, and he was a representative of Wu Geng, so the remnants of Yin Zhi loved him very much. King Wu of Zhou, not only can not kill him, but also respect a high position, to the descendants of Wei Ziqi, while beware, while being tolerant, respect as the Duke of Song, and treat him as a guest. β
"So in order to keep the Li family's choice from being abrupt, and in order to let Da Qin Shao shed more blood in this civil war, Feng Qujian must die!"
Li Yu was speechless, kneeling in the car, afraid and admiring his father.
So here's the problem.
Li Sifu closed his eyes again: "My son, tell me, my family is ...... with Heifu"
He changed his words!
"No, it's the Marquis of Wuzhong appointed by the First Emperor! Is there a grudge that cannot be resolved? β
